Wooden Boat Course, Maine

Fresh from 12 days in New England, I'm busily getting caught up on work, but I'll post some pictures for good measure. Highlights of the odyssey include: (1) holding one month old Keenan Miller in our arms at Shakae's in NYC (2) breakfast and baseball with NY Yankee fanatic Dad Barton at his mountain getaway in Killington, Vermont; (3) celebrating the parents' new view of the Hudson Valley from the comfort of their patio; and (4) a challenging but spectacular 7-day wooden boat sailing course out of Camden, Maine with my dream date, Casey.

Our wee bunk cabin. Wafer thin walls, no toilet, no shower, nada.
